Shop for a Cause with ConAgra & Meijer! #ChildHunger

Disclosure: I participated in this program on behalf of ConAgra Foods and The Motherhood. All opinions are my own.

More than one in five children, including more than one in four Latino children, in the U.S. may not know where their next meal is coming from. That’s nearly 16 million children, a number that could fill 8,000 playgrounds.

Children who experience even intermittent struggles with hunger may suffer serious, long-term consequences to their health, well-being and educational achievement. What’s more, being hungry robs kids of the promise of childhood – the ability to play, grow and learn.

At ConAgra Foods finds this unacceptable. That’s why they partnered with P&G to build a community of people to make a difference and help donate up to 7 million meals through the Child Hunger Ends Here campaign.

• Enter Codes to Trigger Donations. It’s easy to make a difference: Look for the red pushpin on participating product packaging for a code found on these specially marked ConAgra Foods and P&G products. For each 8-digit code entered at www.ChildHungerEndsHere.com from March-August 2014, ConAgra Foods or P&G, respectively, will donate the monetary equivalent of one meal to Feeding America.

  

• Join the Community and Get Involved. One of the easiest ways to learn how to get involved is to join the Child Hunger Ends Here Facebook community at Facebook.com/ChildHungerEndsHere or follow the news on Twitter and Instagram at @ChildHungerEnds.

• Community Food Donations. ConAgra Foods is donating 50,000 meals to community food banks on behalf of Meijer, in appreciation for their fantastic partnership to end child hunger!

*Must be an mPerks Member to Enjoy These Deals

I love using mPerks to save money at Meijer, but it's even better if I can save on products I already use PLUS enter the code for donations.  I know money is tight for a lot of people, so being able to contribute by buying foods you already use is SO helpful.

The twins are officially done with preschool (*tear*) and are headed to kindergarten in the fall.  I cannot wait to help out in their school.  I hope to help with the Kids' Food Basket program near our school to help provide meals for kids after they leave school.  I know with my coupon savvy skills, I can revamp the program and help more families than ever! 

Although the mPerks deals end soon, you can always find coupons for your favorite ConAgra products in the Sunday paper and enter codes through August!

Let's help them reach their goal of 7 million meals!
